States? You‘ll get an answer from him--- written in ink, not typed—after only a few days.
Jimmy Carter gets about 4,000 letters a week. He answers every letter on special( 特别的) White House paper. But he doesn‘t need a lot of time for it. In fact, he only gives 20 minutes a week to look at his private letters. He has the most modern computer in the world to help him. It costs $ 1,200,000.
This computer has its own room on the first floor of the White House. It has a bank of electronic pens and they write like the president writes, in his favourite light blue ink. Each letter to the President gets a number according to the type of answer it needs. The pens then write the correct answer for it according to the number. Each letter takes less than a second to write. A White House official said ―It‘s not important that the letters come from a computer. Each letter says what he wants to say.‖
